UTAH.
Ann Eliza Young v. Brigham Young.
SALT LAKE, Utah, July 20. The case of Ann Eliza Young against Brigham Young for divorce was up before Judge Shaffer to-day, when the following rulings were made: That as Ann Eliza claimed to have been married to Brigham Young, which defendant did not deny, but denied that she was his legal wife; that as the contest was as to the legality of the marriage, the Court could properly grant alimony during the suit. The motion for a personal attachment upon the defendant for contempt of Court in not paying $500 per month alimony was denied, as this was a harsh measure, where milder means would be sufficient. The motion to strike out the amended answer of reference was overruled, and the evi-dence in the main case ordered to be taken before a commissioner. It is probable that an execution will be asked by the plaintiff as a means of col-lecting the alimony heretofore awarded, while the defence will no doubt ask a reduction of the ali-mony.
